Default What to do if my trolling motor breaks

I went to Horseshoe lake the other day to get the dog some exercise and to see if I could shoot a few fish. Well nothing was moving so I only shot 1 gar. But my dog wouldnt stay out of the water. So I put her to use. She is my new trolling motor. She was actually able to pull the boat along pretty good. Got her a good work out along with some entertainment for myself.



I also seen a fox the other day when I was exploring some possible bowfishing spots around where I live. I fed him some french fries.

Those are some awesome pictures! I don't know which I like better, the troller dog of the fox so close.

Oh that's too funny.

For a second you had me thinking of doing that with my dog, but he's so fat that he'd probably just lay there in the water waiting for me to pull HIM around.

Nice job spoiling a prefectly good fox with one of the nastiest foods mankind has ever developed. Now that he has a taste for fries, he'll probably end up looking like my dog.

She actually did lay down a few times. The average depth of horseshoe lake is 3ft. So she can walk out about 100yds across the lake in most spots without swimming.I have been trying to get her some work outs before hunting season gets here. Been taking her around the park on my roller blades for exercise. There was actually a pair of foxes but the other would never get in camera range. That fox needed some fatty foods he was really skinny.
